I'm sorry to hear about your daughter. I hope the proton radiation treatments work. We are going through similar circumstances.
I would love to be in show about Giving Thanks. What a great idea. You should pitch it to your gallery.Hi Connie

The Other Connie NormanSun, 24 Nov 2013 20:17:46 +0000https://connienorman.com/blog/?p=6578#comment-15042What an awesome entry! I love the giving thanks in all circumstances. “There are a thousand ways to kneel and kiss the ground” is my favorite Rumi quote. I am also reading Ann Voskamp’s One Thousand Gifts as my 24 year old daughter and I try to find our own map in dealing with her 5 current radiation-induced brain tumors and the possibility of losing her sight, and going somewhere for 5 weeks of proton radiation.
But as we sat in the radiation oncologist’s office mapping out a plan EXACTLY 23 YEARS after her initial brain tumor diagnosis with the doctor that we met 23 years ago, I should have been giving thanks that we were sitting there at all. So I am keeping a One Thousand Gifts journal also.
I would love to see this translated into a pottery exhibit with the carvers and the stream of consciousness potters who put images and words on their artwork. We have a beautiful gallery here in Duluth, Georgia where I work that would be an awesome venue for such a great show.
So I do not know what is going on in your life, but I wish you many, many blessings on your journey!What an awesome entry!

I know when he is older and he realizes that this is not normal behavior he won't think it's so cool.Thanks Linda! We (my son and I) have a great time taking these photos.
